Thank you for all the hints. Below I enclose steps I did and what works for me:
All is described here in great details: http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS6300294422.html The steps I did are described below: 1. Download the tar file which contains the configurations data of every time zone (the name can change with time tzdata2007f.tar.gz so maybe it is better first to see what the server contains ) wget ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2007f.tar.gz 2. Untar the package tar zxvf tzdata2007f.tar.gz 3. Compile the config data for certain area. The compiled files will be stored in the directory after -d option (in my case zoneinfo1). Launch zic compiler on the host computer. /usr/sbin/zic -d zoneinfo1 europe 4. Install the time zone data on the remote computer cp zoneinfo1/CET /etc/. ln -s /etc/CET /etc/localtime Best Regards Mirek On Mon, 9 Jul 2007, Mike Frysinger wrote: > On Monday 09 July 2007, Miroslaw Dach wrote: > > Thank you for the suggestion.
